Answer:

C. (-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since C internally divides AB in the ratio AC/CB = 1/2 = m/n where m = 1 and n = 2, we use the formula for internal division.

Let A = (x₁, y₁) = (5, 16), B = (x₂, y₂) and C = (x, y) = (3, 10)

So x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

Substituting the values of the coordinates, we have

x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

3 = (1 × x₂ + 2 × 5)/(2 + 1)

3 = (x₂ + 10)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

9 = x₂ + 10

x₂ = 9 - 10

x₂ = -1

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

10 = (1 × y₂ + 2 × 16)/(2 + 1)

10 = (x₂ + 32)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

30 = y₂ + 32

y₂ = 30 - 32

y₂ = -2

So, the coordinates of B are (-1, -2)

what is the simplified form of the following expression? Assume x is greater than or equal to 0 and y is greater than or equal t
yarga [219]

the given expression is :

2(4√16x) - 2(4√2y) + 34√81x - 4(4√32y)

⇒ 8(√16x) - 8(√2y) + 34√81x - 16√32y  

⇒8×4√x - 8√2y + 34×9√x - 16√16×2y     [∵ √16 = 4 and √81 = 9]

⇒32√x - 8√2y + 306√x - 16×4√2y

⇒(32√x + 306√x) - 8√2y  - 16×4√2y      

⇒338√x -72√2y

A social media platform states that a social media post from a marketing agency has 7 hashtags, on average. A digital marketing
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

a. The average number of hashtags used in a social media post from a marketing agency is different than 7 hashtags.

Step-by-step explanation:

A social media platform states that a social media post from a marketing agency has 7 hashtags, on average.

This means that at the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is 7, that is:

H_0: \mu = 7

A digital marketing specialist studying social media advertising believes the average number of hashtags used in a post from a marketing agency is different than the number stated by the social media platform.

Keyword is different, so at the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is different of 7, that is:

H_1: \mu \neq 7

Thus, the correct answer is given by option a.

4. The data shows the number of siblings each student in a 9th-grade class has.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is Mean and standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data set provided, arranged in ascending order is:

S = {0 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 , 3 , 4 , 4}

Now, it is provided that Macy was absent when the data was collected and the class guessed she had 4 siblings. When  she returned, they found out she actually has 9 siblings.

So, the new data set is:

X = {0 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 , 3 , 4 , 9}

The mean of a data set is the average value representing the entire data.

\bar X=\frac{1}{n}\sum X_{i}

The median is the middle value of the data set.

The inter-quartile range is the difference between the first and the third quartile.

The standard deviation is the value that represents how dispersed the data values are.

SD=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum (X_{i}-\bar X)^{2}}

From all the above statistic, the mean and standard deviation are the only ones that uses all the observations in the data set to compute their value.

So, on changing one of the 4s by a 9, the set of measures that will be affected are the mean and standard deviation.

Thus, the correct option is Mean and standard deviation.

If the parabola of the form y = a(x – h)2 + k is always shifted horizontally h units and vertically k units, then its vertex is
Marta_Voda [28]
The parabola defined by
y = a(x - h)² + k
has its vertex at (h,k).

After a shift by h units right, followed by a shift of k units vertically, the parabola is defined by
y = a(x - 2h)² + 2k
which has its vertex at (2h, 2k).

Answer: The vertex gets shifted by h units horizontally and k units vertically.
